app, working overtime eh? One of IR's best album, for me, because I am a biased SPB fan and here lies some of his best work. Wonderful reminiscence of the time gone by, app. Thanks.

Abdiye aapiss lendhu escape aagi, time machine la 80s ku poi, Thiruchi bus stand, REC, ellam sutthi paatha oru unarvu. Nandri app.
Pani vizhum is one of the songs that 'inducted' me into the 'IR school'. I was so awestruck hearing this song the first time. I had no clue of which movie it was from, who the composer was or who had sung it. I just fell for the tune and then the madness crept in. I called my sister immediately and sang her the 1st line (pani vizhum tha ra ra rum) and asked her details. (the first one that struck me like a bolt of lightning was Poongatru from Moondrampirai). The patterns slowly started forming as I started liking specific songs and then it dawned upon me that the brain behind all of it was one, the special one. Appo pudicha pitthu dhaan...
A recent discovery for me was the female solo version of Rojavai thaalattum - Kaanal neer pola. The instumentation's slightly different in this version, even the interludes. Does this song feature in the movie as well?
app,
I have said this earlier and say it again. You should collate all these writings, do a bit of editing and publish this as a book. It will be wonderful for people to read about the 80s through your experience and Raja's music. I am saying this seriously. Do think about it.
Good to see you complete the century. Unlike our fellows in England :(
App anna, is this a "real incident" or a story ?Quote:

BTW, I corrected the youtube link for nee thAnE on page 136...this one now has the movie visuals that are :lol: material!
Warewaa ...100th song completed !! and Neethane en pon vasantham , what a song for a century!
You're doing a great job! melum Payanam todarattum...
Rojavai talattum tendral, what a sweet breezy song, lovely lyrics too. I must admit the songs from NN are purely for the ears & heart!!! Never for the eyes, I dislike the picturizations of all the songs, lack of creativity,chemistry between the pair, but they were such a laughing material like you said, with really awkwardly hilarious dance movements, Choreographer-ai katti vachi otaikkanumnge !
Whats the next album sir ? aarvathoda waitinggu ....
That was a very astute write-up for pani vizhum, app. You kept us guessing on the relevance of the write-up and gave a knock-out punch in the end, which, incidentally, brought out the futility of trying to explain such an exquisite piece of art as pani vizhum.
I dont want to say I'll second Suresh's and Faramu's suggestion of editing this into a book - but that's only because I think I suggested that long back myself :)
I think, apart from the free-flowing nostalgia, filmy trivia, and sometimes insightful analyses on the songs themselves, you do surprise with the variety of approaches to writing about the song.
I'll even go one step ahead - I am willing to help with the editing process, proof-reading and putting together a coherent book.
